Historian’s “Social Media” Party!

As of today, I am officially job hunting… So, in an effort to find a great job as a Community Manager/Social Media guy, I’m hosting a crazy three-day blog, web site promotion event and social media party on my blog, my Facebook Fan page and my Twitter account. What’s truly unique about this event is that I plan to check out every link posted on my page, comment and share the link as I deem appropriate. Everybody may participate. It’s not necessary to have a blog or other website.

  3. In what ways can I participate?
    You can post a link to your blog or website with a brief non-hypey introduction. You can network (see below) with other people and check out their links. You can even be a fly on the wall (no pun intended) and just chill.

    You are encouraged to network, but please do so in a professional manner to avoid being forced to play “Strawberry Shortcake: Musical Match-Ups” with a broken controller.
  11. When will you be hosting another event like this one?
    I don’t know. It depends on how this one goes. If I get a great job, you can expect something like this at my new position. If not, I will hire bouncers and make it a rave with a $5 cover instead.
  12. What happens if I don’t attend this one?
    You’ll have to live with a guilty conscience for all eternity.

    I’ve got kids and bills, work with me here.
  17. What if you haven’t answered my question?
    I just pretend to be perfect, post it below and I will try and answer.

* Note that I reserve the right to modify the rules and conditions of this event arbitrarily and capriciously with or without prior or subsequent notice. I will also remove posts and comments as I see fit.

Don’t hesitate to connect, leave a comment, or offer me a job.

I want to thank Larry Brauner of http://online-social-networking.com/ for the idea for this event.

  1. Hey Hist… You got the support of the DeadlyNights.com Gaming Community. Sadly you kinda caught us with our pants down as we just started re-doing the website and updating to a newer version of VB yesterday. If there is anything we can do to help you out just give us a shout.
